Security is a common concern, and extremely relevant. With scams, viruses, and data corruption, there are many things to worry about. Many people who inquire about DenariOnline have a very significant concern about putting their data "out there somewhere". They feel like a mother sending their first born son away to college. Will he be okay?
It would be nice to hear, "yes, your data is completely secure." But, in reality that would be a lie. The reality is that your data is in jeopardy every time you connect to the web. Using a computer on the internet is similar to living in a high crime neighborhood. You would be wise to employ multiple security measures.
In your home that might mean starting a neighborhood watch, getting a dog, installing an alarm system and perhaps motion detection lighting. With your data is means firewalls, virus protection, intrusion detection, encryption, logging, monitoring and security policies. |

Virtually all non-profits feel very responsible to their donors, and would never want anything to happen to the donor data. Synergy understands those sentiments and completely agrees. Security is job one!
What most non-profits don't realize is that their data is in greater jeopardy in their own office than it is on our servers. Every minute of every day there are many computer hackers probing every IP address and every port, looking for vulnerabilities. Your computers are currently under attack, as you read this. Did you know that? What are you doing to keep them out? How do you know who is attempting to hack in? Did they succeed? Is your data safe right now? You probably don't know.
Synergy has professional staff and we specialize in internet data hosting. We have top quality equipment and people who know how to maintain it. We are PCI compliant, which in non-technical terms means we have gone through a complicated security examination and we meet the highest security standards.
The bottom line is that your data is safer in DenariOnline than it is on your own computer.
